    2 Marines In Battle

    2 Marines start to Shoot it out in the Marshall Islands Campaign. Look at the Gunners M1icon Carbine laying next to him. I cant tell if there's something on the end of his Carbine or is it the wood ? My Vision is getting pretty Bad. I think it's time to get some Glasses.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Nope, you're good! It's an M8 Launcher for the carbine!

    That was a lot to carry. Looks like the gunner carried the machine gun and carbine, the ammo gun the cans and a carbine. Who carried the grenades?

    I was going to say whatever it was, it was there for sure because it was casting a shadow.

    The gun with the launcher looks like it has a I cut oiler stock too.
